Wise Up on M&A by Exitwise | Ep. 2: Why Your Own Lawyer Isn't Enough

Most M&A content is made by experts talking to other experts. Wise Up on M&A is different.

You already have a lawyer. A good one. So why does everyone say you need a specialized M&A attorney?

Wise Up on M&A by Exitwise is part of the Exitwise Productions podcast network, alongside The Wise Exit and the Exited Founder Podcast. Stephanie asks the questions founders actually have, and Exitwise M&A experts answer them.

Episode 2: Why Your Own Lawyer Isn't Enough

Stephanie sits down with Brian Dukes, Exitwise M&A expert, to tackle the first must-have on your deal team: the M&A attorney. Brian has seen what happens when founders bring the wrong lawyer into a transaction.

What you'll hear:
  • Why the attorney who has been with you since day one might be the wrong pick for this
  • The two "but I already have a lawyer" arguments founders always make and what Brian actually thinks of them
  • What separates a real M&A attorney from a very good corporate one
  • Who gets seat number two on the M&A team boat? Coming next week.
